Hello Johnny! Nice to meet you. I'm makobe! ( Makoto Jinbo from Japan) I found the explanation of the "International Guild of Knot Tyers - Solent Branch" to be very clear and helpful. The Vice versa knot is stronger but for ease of use and beauty of the knot I definitely prefer the Reever knot. I've been experimenting with it to see if I can use it more aggressively in my mountaineering. Reever knot can imagine a lot of applications for this it's very interesting.
Woot. Thank you much. 🙌🏻 Here is the step by step if someone needs 🤷🏻 0:38, 1:00, 1:29, 1:49, 2:10, 2:36 Not sure if it's the best knot for the application I used it for, I mean I believe this is great for extending ropes and what not, but I just used it to create a non adjustable loop. Basically a single rope that I used this knot on each end securing them to one another to lock them in a closed loop.
Just found this "The Reever Knot and the Vice Versa Bend are essentially the same knot. They only differ in the selection of which lines are used as the standing and working ends of the knot"
Not that I ever work with mono filament, but I would think so. I am sure that I read the other day that the Ligature knot would work well for that purpose: ruclips.net/video/zMaBlFdlSjQ/видео.html
As a mountaineer/rock climber (from the U.S), I am most accustomed to the Figure 8 bend/Flemish bend, and the Double Fishermans bend. I have seen ample evidence that these bends are extremely strong, and very unlikely to pull through when tied properly. I have also seen good evidence that this bend is extremely strong. Do you know of any advantage to this bend at all? For instance, a significant advantage in mountaineering/climbing would be ease of untying after being shock loaded or when wet/icy.
The advantage of this knot is that when tied, it is clamped at 2 points within the knot. As for it being used for mountain climbing, I can not comment as that subject is way beyond my technical skills.
I cannot find much information on this knot................ it would appear that this particular bend is rather secure as the two lines are clamped twice within the actual structure of the knot. This makes it less prone to shake free compared to some other bends. I have asked in some groups for more information about this particular knot. Has a lovely symmetry when tied though??
Cheers for the video Johnny. Just as a hypothetical, if you tie this with the ends of one rope to make a loop, do you think it may be useful for Prusik Loops? I don't mean to replace the Double Fisherman's for safety applications, but more for general usage. I personally seem to find this knot easier to untie than the Double Fisherman's as I can split the loops at the back similarly to the Alpine Butterfly
You are the master of your own knots, if it works for you, use it. I probably used knots that people would not consider right for the job, but if it works for me, that is all I need. Sometimes I do test them with excessive weight, just to make sure I still want that knot.
i tested two things. fresh uncoated 8mm dyneema, which is slippery as hell. the knot grips tight and the rope doesnt slip a mm. secondly 8mm and 3mm dyneema, even with the difference in diameter it's secure. if you really need a secure bend that wont come undone, you should check this out. if you need a knot that is easy to untie after heavy load, i'm afraid i got some bad news.
Thanks for taking the time to share this information, I always love to hear about knots and cordage being used in action. Just out of curiosity what do you coat Dyneema with?
Be prepared for this knot to be permanent. With just hand loading, I nearly jammed this knot. An actual load would have jammed it solid. I have to wonder who many people out there are testing knots.
@@KnottingKnots Safety is not really that critical. Maybe more for general utilitarian purpose like additional cordage creation for binding, some lashing, hauling/lifting some loads...

@@KnottingKnots : no I've never used this, I've always used Vice Versa (learned from a Budworth book). however at first glance they look similar, except the working ends on a Vice Versa come out both on the high side as opposed to this knot which has the working ends diagonal exit.
@@jameshaggarty1623 When I researched this one, I read that it is basically the same knot. Are you just looking out of interest or looking for a good bend to add to your arsenal?

The two different colors really give an accent to the instructions. Great job Johnny!!!
Glad that it helped out. 😉
Well done!!!! A nice and slow explanation for novices like me. Thankyou KK.

Woohoo I got the first comment 😜. Love how quick these new vids are. So clear and concise 👏

Quick, clean and efficient video. Cheers Johnny!

Never heard of a better way to describe how you tie this knot. You are so thorough and explain so clearly. Thank you so much for posting this video!😊👍
You are so welcome! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
I tried another reever clip before yours. Wasted an hour. With yours I got it on the first try! Thanks, Johnny!

Good instructions , thanks for sharing , God bless !
You are very welcome,
Thank you, sir. This was great
Nicely done. Thank you for sharing. Wish you well.
Good to hear from you again. I only recently discovered this knot and know very little about it...............
Thanks, Johnny. 🙂👍
Once again thanks for the comment!!! 😉
Your thumbnail shows the working ends on opposite corners of the knot.
Well explain, thank you

I've know of this knot for a long time but never heard it called this before
I only recently discovered this one, but can find very little information on it.
Hi Johnny! Thanks for another great video. This knot reminds me the Vice Versa. Are they different?
As I was researching this knot, I read somewhere that they are almost the same............ now trying to find out what the difference is???
Just found this "The Reever Knot and the Vice Versa Bend are essentially the same knot. They only differ in the selection of which lines are used as the standing and working ends of the knot"
Would this make a good knot for joining mono filament fishing line?

Use a Zeppelin Bend if you want to easily untie it
yeah zeppelin is my favourite@@MB-jg4tr
but this one has the advantage of a sleeker profile@@MB-jg4tr

Is this also good for joining ropes of different diameters or thickness? Great video. Tnx!
I think my first question to you would be, what are you planning to do with the rope, is safety a priority?

@@Misanti888 Perhaps the Sheet Bend would serve you better, there are a few variations here: ruclips.net/user/KnottingKnotssearch?query=sheet%20bend
@@KnottingKnots Yup, was thinking the same knot. Many thanks for quick reply n sharing. Stay safe...🙏😊
This knot is vice versa?

Sort of a double square knot, no?

This looks similar to the Vice Versa knot. Do you have a preference between the two?
I personally never use this one, just filmed it for demonstration purposes. I take it that you use this one?
